“The launch of Canada’s new nickel company is truly a victory for Nuinsco and its shareholders,” said Rene Galipeau, Chief Executive Officer. “A great deal of effort went in to creating Victory Nickel and I would like to extend my thanks to all of those who helped Nuinsco achieve this significant milestone. The time is right for a new Canadian nickel company and Nuinsco shareholders now have two well-financed growth companies to capitalize on a robust commodities market. With active exploration and development programs on all projects we expect a significant amount of news coming out of both Victory Nickel and Nuinsco as we move forward.”
